"The brothers who were lucky enough to survive also scattered and fled, their whereabouts unknown..."

"..."

Betrayal?!

"how so?!"

Wang Zhi yanked the man off his horse: "Commander Ma is dead?!"

"If he dies, his head will be hung on the city gate..."

"Lord Wang, Yunzhou is finished!"

"..."

Chen Sanshi's heart sank.

With the fall of Hengkang Prefecture and the three prefectures including Anding Prefecture closing their cities and refusing to come out, it means that the rest of Yunzhou will be trampled flat by the iron hooves, and the lives of hundreds of thousands or even millions of people will probably be used for so-called blood sacrifices!

What's even more frightening is that their situation is far from optimistic.

Youzhou is not far from where they are, but it is at least half a month's journey away. This time is more than enough for the barbarian pursuers to catch up.

"Cuckoo cuckoo——"

Suddenly, the call of a cuckoo rang out from the nearby mountains and forests.

Is there news from the Governor's Office?

Chen Sanshi immediately dismounted and disappeared into the woods where the sound came from.

Just then, they saw Han Cheng release a strange-looking gyrfalcon behind a pile of rocks. It seemed to be outside the category of ordinary birds and could be considered a strange beast.

"Lord Chen, the Commander-in-Chief has sent a letter! We're saved..."

Han Cheng leaned against the rock: "The commander said that the main battlefield in the three northwestern states is at a critical moment to decide the outcome. It is impossible to mobilize the elite troops of the eight major camps or garrisons in a short period of time, but we still managed to gather 50,000 garrison soldiers. Among them, the reserve generals of the three northwestern states also came to participate in the battle and rushed to Yunzhou day and night."

"Selecting a striker?"

Chen Sanshi noticed the key point: "You mean someone like me?"

"Correct."

Han Cheng nodded: "The selection of warriors begins every year in February after the start of spring, but many people arrive in Liangzhou in advance. However, the selection will not officially begin until everyone has arrived."

"In about seven days, they will be able to reach Huanwen County on the northwestern border of Yunzhou. Based in this county, they will then divide their forces and go to various parts of Yunzhou to relieve the siege, depending on the real-time battle situation."

"We are not far from Huanwen County, it will take us about seven days to get there."

"but……

"If you continue along this road and want to reach Huanwen County, you need to cross the river."

"The Hongze River is the largest river in the entire northern region."

"I want to lead 40,000 people across the river, but I don't know how much time that will take."

"Lord Chen, I still have the same advice: ignore these commoners and ordinary soldiers, lead the cavalry and ride away at full speed. Once we cross the river, we will be safe."

"Moreover, the fact that the commander-in-chief has gathered the reserve generals together suggests that he intends to test them in this battle."

"Real combat experience has always been a crucial part of the striker selection process."

“The selection of vanguards is for military generals. What use is a general with a high level of skill if he cannot lead troops into battle?”

"Participating in the battle in Yunzhou this time is definitely of paramount importance."

"Therefore, Lord Chen, you'd better get to Huanwen County as soon as possible. At that time, troops will be assigned to you to participate in the battle based on your cultivation level. If you miss it, it will be like losing an opportunity to make a good impression on the Grand Coordinator."

"You have to think it through."

"Since things have come to this, Brother Han, there's no need for further words."

Chen Sanshi felt no regret whatsoever.

If he had abandoned the city and fled from the beginning, he would have been a coward at most. But if he ran away halfway, he really wouldn't be able to sleep at night.

He wasn't worried about the selection of strikers.

His cultivation speed is not slow, and he also has the skill of [Commanding Troops] to his name. Even if he doesn't win at the beginning, he will definitely gradually stand out on the battlefield in the future.

unless……

Like the military garrisons, the governor's mansion was all show and no substance.

But this possibility is unlikely.

If a team is extremely corrupt, it is absolutely impossible for it to have a fighting force that can shake the world.

Even if that's the case, looking across the entire Great Sheng Dynasty, is there anywhere else he can go?

"it is good!"

Han Cheng didn't try to persuade him further: "It's good that you've thought it through, Lord Chen. Also, please find an excuse to send the young master to the front of the line, so he won't be left to cover the rear."

"Well, I see."

Chen Sanshi parted ways with him.

He located the position on the map, revised the route, and informed everyone that the destination had been changed from Hengkang Prefecture to Huanwen County, relaying the message down the ranks to the front of the group.

"Seven days!"

"Even if we bring the people, we should be able to get there!"

It's much better than the previous two weeks.

However, they will almost certainly face pursuit next.

Three thousand cavalrymen, as long as there is no general who surpasses the level of Lianzang, may not be unmanageable.

Quickly refine your internal organs, understand the enemy's strengths and weaknesses, and then make a decision.

Chen Sanshi made up his mind.

For the next three days...

He deliberately slowed down, falling to the very back of the group, using the saved time to cultivate, and then catching up with the group again thanks to Chihiro's incredible speed, repeating this cycle over and over.

It must be said that the white swan horse played an extremely important role.

late at night.

Chen Sanshi finished the last jar of Tiger Blood Wine, stuffed a small handful of spiritual herbs into his mouth, and began to brandish the spear in his hand.

under the moonlight.

The reed-leaf spear in his hand stirred the cold wind, possessing the steadiness of a golden snake, the swiftness of a flying snake, and the ferocity of a formation-breaking spear technique—all blended together.

A white snake spits out its tongue, an iron ox plows the field, swallows steal their nests, a yellow dragon lies in the road...

Each move, each stance, all merged together, and the spear in his hand could no longer be described as a snake, but as a python, a raging python, a raging python that would one day transform into a dragon!

Driven by the Unity Spear Technique.

Chen Sanshi's blood seemed to have lost control, surging violently and causing indescribable pain due to internal chaos. He nearly fainted several times until he gradually grasped the pattern and perfectly synchronized his marksmanship with it, finally controlling the restless dragon-elephant blood within him and allowing it to be controlled at will.

At this moment, with the support of the blood, his reaction speed, explosive power, and five senses were greatly enhanced. In the state of blood transfusion, he could easily perceive the dangers in all directions and make rapid reactions, coupled with extremely terrifying instantaneous explosive power.

No wonder.

Whether it was Xiang Tingchun, Luo Dongquan, or Wumuer, they were all able to easily block the arrows he shot.

He had the most close-quarters combat with Umur.

This guy can also quickly spot flaws in his marksmanship.

In summary, the advantage of martial artists in the early stages of organ refinement lies in their ability to resolve most crises by leveraging the overall improvement brought about by "blood transfusion," and then counterattack with astonishing explosive power.

Defense, counter-attack!

With the combination of the blood of the dragon and elephant, the tendons of the nine dragons, and other physical qualities, the speed at which blood is transferred surpasses that of ordinary martial artists of the same level by far more than a fraction.
